ipfw(8): Fix endianness for Legacy and Ipv4 table hostname values
The lookup_host() helper subroutine emits a struct in_addr value in network
byte order via caller passed pointer. However, the table value is expected
to be stored in host byte order. On little-endian machines, this produced a
reversed endian table value for Legacy or IPv4 table types when the value
was a hostname (instead of a plain IP address).
Fix by using ntohl() on the output 32-bit address.
While here, avoid some aliasing violations by storing the lookup_host()
output in an intermediate object of the correct type.
